5 Multi-day Tours in Azores That You Shouldn't Miss

August 22, 2021 Tambra Mccollister

The nine islands that make up the Azores are in fact the peaks of some of the world's tallest mountains, reaching from deep beneath the Atlantic. The once-uninhabited, volcanic archipelago now hosts thousands of tourists every year who flock to the islands for sun, sand and verdant mountain scenery. From the beaches of Praia da Vitoria to the bustling marina of Horta, to the bubbling volcanic ground "ovens" of Furnas, these islands offer unparalleled--and unusual--adventures to discover.

I did find the service comfortable and it seems to go "everywhere" in Ponta Delgada... But despite the advert they do have only one trip per hour... but it is plenty as both ways I was alone in the bus...

First thing I would like to say is that The Azores - Sao Miguel Island is an amazing place and worth visiting. It's a wonderful, natural, beautiful and soulful place. This is my second time going there and having Joao be my guide. The first time I went, it was with a friend. The second time just now, was with my husband and a number of good friends. It was wonderful. Joao is a true Azorian and he is the best guide I have ever had. To him, it's home and he loves it and is proud of his home. He will show you his Island as no one else will. I highly recommend him as a guide. You will not regret it. The Island is exceptional and so is Joao. Enjoy your trip!

This is an absolute must do if you visit the island. Actually, even if you have whale whatched before or on other destinations, don't give this a pass. In our trip we say humpback whales jumping around. It was an impreasive experience. Great staff, extremely educational.
